Jak and Daxter Collection arriving in February

Sony has given its Jak and Daxter Collection a February release date in Europe.

The SKU will include HD versions of three PS2 titles – Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy, Jak II and Jak 3.

The remastering efforts are being handled by Mass Media, which is “working closely” with Naughty Dogg. Each title will include 720p HD visuals and stereoscopic 3D as well as PS3 Trophy support.

“The Jak and Daxter franchise set a benchmark for the platformer genre with its huge environments and gaming freedom. In fact, it holds 7 world records in the Guinness World Records: Gamer’s Edition 2008 including the First Seamless 3D World in a Console Game,” Naughty Dogg co-foudner Evan Wells stated.

“As you can imagine, there’s a lot of love for the franchise here at Naughty Dog, and it has a very special place in our hearts. If you can believe it, the Jak and Daxter franchise will be celebrating its 10th anniversary this year on December 4th.”
